That’s awful. The USA version just drastically reduced the paper quality with this year’s September issue. I picked it up and thought it felt so cheap that I didn’t even bother buying it even though I was excited to see Cara on the cover. It seems like the USA version is on the way out too.

I just had the same issue with Elle and InStyle this year. Simply disappointing here in the US. I am transitioning to more obscure and ezpensive magazines and used magazines from the golden age. I rather have one incredibly good magazine than 12 issues of mediocre magazines.
